Protecting Traditional Knowledge examines the emerging
international frameworks for the protection of Indigenous
traditional knowledge, and presents an analysis situated at the
intersection between intellectual property, access and benefit
sharing, and Indigenous peoples' rights to self-determination.
Drawing on the experience of India and Peru, the author identifies
lessons that may be used by Indigenous and local communities in
making decisions regarding the protection of traditional knowledge.
Using these two key case studies, the book argues that a sui
generis regime based on principles of self-determination, prior
informed consent and mutually agreed terms may empower Indigenous
and local communities and act as a form of corrective justice. This
informative and accessible book will be a valuable resource for
Indigenous and local peoples as well as scholars of intellectual
property law, Indigenous knowledge systems and international
environmental law. It will also be of interest to readers working
in policy development, governance, law and international
development, human rights and the rights of Indigenous and local
communities.
